We had a day off school today, but unfortunately couldn't meet up. So we wrote all of this through emailing, texting, and talking on the phone whilst typing. Bet you've never heard writers do that before, am I right?

Disclaimer – I do not own Wizards of Waverly Place. If I did, Gigi would have been a reccuring character, instead of being in only, like, three episodes. =/ Alex + Harper + Gigi + Magic = Amazing revenge fights. Mohahahaha. ;)

Chapter 4

Justin pulled up to his girlfriend's house, and put the car on park. He unclipped his seatbelt, and turned to face Juliet. She smiled, and he couldn't help but be amazed at how the light illuminated her bright white fangs.

"This was… A really fun date," he said, before noticing a shade of pink on her pale cheeks. She dropped her head down, her blonde hair swinging in front of her eyes.

"Yeah, it was," she replied quietly. Justin reached forward to tuck a strand of Juliet's hair behind her ear, to which she smiled, and blushed, even more.

"Telling you I love you was really hard, you know," he admitted truthfully. He'd expected the words to come out wrong, or for Juliet to be taken aback, and then fly off, as her bat self, in an instant. But no, that didn't happen. In fact, she loved him too!

"I was shocked when you told me." Juliet looked straight into Justin's eyes. "I hoped, that one day, you would, but… I never really believed it would happen."

Justin moved forward and gently pecked Juliet's lips. He felt her smile into the kiss, and pull Justin closer to her, wanting him to deepen the kiss.

"I have to get back to Alex," he mumbled against her lips, before pulling away. The heat of the soon to be intimate kiss had left him slightly out of breath. Justin then explained how his parents and brother had had to leave New York for a few days to visit his aunt.

"Okay," she sighed reluctantly, before twirling a lock of hair round her fingers, sadly, yet very seductively. She leant back in to give Justin a last kiss.

Justin was always amazed by his girlfriend's quick change of personality. When they were talking, or sharing feelings, -of which they rarely did, much to Justin's delight- Juliet would be 'Little Miss Shy', and blush, and giggle, and act like their conversations were being projected on a huge screen worldwide. But when their behaviour was less verbal, and more… Physical… she would be the exact opposite.

Juliet would be the one in charge, the one who's tongue would fight the most for dominance while they were making out, the one who would kiss Justin full on in public, just to show that he was hers. In fact, Justin was sure that, in the near future, she'd want to go further, most probably all the way… That was why Justin was so intent on telling Juliet that he loved her. If they did one day break up, she wouldn't think Justin was only with her so that he could do what he wanted with her and then leave. He wanted her to know that he truly did love her.

Alex sat down on the sofa, before bringing her head to her hands and letting the tears stream down her face. Sad wasn't even an understatement to describe how she was feeling. It was like watching the love of your life being happy with someone else…

Wait, like?

Alex was watching Justin be happy with Juliet. All the thoughts in her head, the emotion, the feeling… She knew they were pointless, but she couldn't just block them out. She had survived before, knowing that Justin was dating Juliet, and liked her. A lot. But perhaps that was just because she hadn't seen them together before, except for at school where their display of affection was fairly limited.

But watching them say they loved each other, and the look in her brother's eyes when he said it, showed more emotion than imaginable. The care he had for Juliet, the love, the kindness; he was unmistakably in love with her. Alex just didn't want to admit it. But because of that, she'd now inadvertently punished herself, forced herself to see the couple actually express their feelings towards one another.

Alex wiped her eyes, and slowly walked up to her room. She pulled open a drawer, taking out her art pencils, and reached under her pillow for her notebook. She traipsed back down the stairs and flopped back down, crossing her legs on the sofa and opening the book. After slowly flipping past the pages filled with sketches that she liked to draw during history, she finally got the picture of her and Justin on the raft.

It was almost done actually. The only things that could use a little more tone and shade were Alex's hair, because she started daydreaming in class after Justin had come in. And his eyes which didn't look nearly as mysterious as they looked in real life. And the waves around. Yes, they were meant to be calm and soothing, but they didn't look like water, at all. More like… Extremely awkward blades of grass. Alex began to lightly brush her pencil over the areas, in an attempt to improve the waves, and just finish the drawing.

She had just her heart broken, and was now reminiscing on, what she wished could one day turn out to be, a good memory. Hadn't she seen a tweet about never doing that?

Justin walked towards his apartment's door and brought his hand up to lazily ring the doorbell, but then stopped himself. He checked his watch. 11:13. He couldn't be inconsiderate; he suspected Alex would be asleep by now. Waking her up with the bell wouldn't only be rude to Alex, considering Justin had told her not to wait up, but he would also be in a hell of a lot of trouble for interrupting his sister's 'beauty sleep'.

He rummaged around inside his pocket, before he heard the familiar jangle of his key. He slowly twisted the key through the lock, and opened the door, only to see Alex curled up on the sofa with her notebook in her hands, concentrating on her artwork.

"You're awake?" he asked in surprise.

"No. No, I'm just an illusion, Captain I Love State The Obvious." Alex knew that she had to crack a witty remark If she acted too upset, Justin would suspect something was up, and keep bugging her about it. It was either witty or pissy.

"Yeah, well, I thought you'd be asleep."

"How did your little date go?" she asked, trying to sound sarcastic. Sarcasm was usually her third language, just behind English and New Yorkean, but this time it came out as a foreign accent.

"Well," Justin started, picking up on his sister's tone of voice. He closed the door behind him, and sit on the sofa next to Alex, who quickly flipped her notebook page over. "I told Juliet I love her."
Alex rolled her eyes.
"Shut up!" Justin said. "Anyway, turns out she loves me too."
"I know!" Alex said. She really didn't want to hear this story again. "I mean… Whatever. So? I don't care."
Justin frowned. "…Are you okay?"
"Yeah, I'm freakin' fine!" she lied, hoping her voice wouldn't crack. "Why wouldn't I be?"
"No, it's just that you sounded… Surprised. Kind of like you were… Jealous."

That was the one thing both Alex and Justin could do to each other with the same strength.
Wind each other up.

"Of what?" Alex asked, blushing. Oh no, was it obvious?
"I mean, I have a girlfriend who loves me. Your best friend has a boyfriend who loves her. And you…"
"What's that supposed to mean? Of course I'm not jealous," Alex lied again Oh good. Justin didn't suspect anything, he just thought she was jealous of everyone for having a partner.
"Oh, okay." Justin grinned. " It's not like you could get a boyfriend anyway."
Alex felt her blood boil.
"What?" she exclaimed. "I could so get a boyfriend!" And, yes, it was more or less true. If Justin wasn't her brother, she knew that he's fall for her in an instant, what with her brown eyes and dark wavy hair and beautiful personality. Well, beautiful… How about fearless? Beautiful wasn't quite the right way to describe Alex Russo's personality, but fearless was definitely on the top three.

Alex began to explain how she could get a boyfriend, easily, and how their were always guys standing by her locker, and how she always had to give rain-checks, and how she got tweets and PING!s and texts asking if she was available on a Saturday.

"Whatever," Justin sighed, smiling at his success. Alex rolled her eyes again, at her brother's annoyance and at the slight relief that her brother was done with the conversation. She didn't know how much longer she'd be able to talk before her voice let everything out.
"I'm actually so tired," Justin yawned. "See you in the morning."

Alex said goodnight to his brother. As soon, as he left the room, she continued her fantasy art work, and imagined how perfect life would be if it could come true.

As Justin walked up the stairs to his bedroom, he began to think. He thought about how his sister was acting. She must be kind of lonely; she needed someone besides her friends to spend time with. Maybe he could find out who she was crushing on. After all, as he thought… It could be anyone…

Ohmigod! Who does Alex like? =O Hehe, it's obvious. If not… Then this story isn't as informative as it should be. =S

Roganjalex – Thank you very much, happy you loved it! =D Haha, I don't have many reviews… I'm not the right person to give advice! Just um… Keep on updating, so that your story stays near the top of the story list. =)

A l b a . D e l a c o r t a – LOL, I know. We're workin' on it. XD

Did you like this chapter or not? We tried to make it a bit longer than usual. =)

We don't have school on Friday, so we may be able to write/update then. But we'll be busy, watching the Wizards of Waverly Place Finale!

Yes, I'm guessing you guys live in America so got it, like, over two months ago. But the UK's dumb and takes ages to air things. We only got Harparella last week. . I deliberately didn't go onto Wikipedia and read about what happens in the last ever episode; I want it to be a complete surprise! Gonna be so emotional on Friday… =')

REVIEW! Only if you want to… But I'd appreciate it.
